I wasn't aware you were making a list. Please put me down in the "for sure" category.

hell ya, i've been a long time lurker since 2008. been watching every news about this car every couple months.

though i just sign up with the VIP program yesterday, so i will still need to work something when the time comes to take full advantage of the best pricing.

regardless im getting it as soon as its avaliable.

Around there.

You can pick Color and your options, but you have to remember.. added options will increase cost. But for the base (premium model without addons) (according to Frank) will be $300 above invoice. I need to call him again and ask him a few more questions. Such as.. if trade-ins work... if the price includes tax, what can he do for everyone who's in the group buy (such as ext. warrenty or something..) and FOR SURE if the Subaru VIP program applies to this car (some people have noted that it may or maynot work for the BRZ since its a new car).

I'll put together a list of questions of what I'll ask in the very first post of this thread. Should be up by either late tonight or early morning.

Thanks Giccin. It'd be cool if they ever have a BRZ/FR-S track day

I've been celebrating the end of Fall. Lol

:P Fear not. I will harass.

What questions do you guys want to ask?

- Do you take trade ins?
- Does the Subaru VIP Program include the BRZ?
- Will it pay off current lease with 6 months remaining?

Any other questions?

Will they pay off my current lease with 6 months remaining?

I'm heading to Irvine Subaru tomorrow around.. 11ish.

I'll repeat the questions I asked to Frank and any other possible ones I can think of at the time. :P

Let me know how it goes. Hopefully you talked to the GM and got her to set something up.

- Do you take/uphold the Subaru VIP program for the BRZ specifically?
: Yes, but ONLY on orders. (Meaning you call in and tell her what you want for your BRZ Limted or Premium.)
- Do you take Trade-ins?
: Yes.
- Do you take Deposits?
: Unfortunately, not until Subaru corporate actually puts it in the system so you can order it. (I went and took a look at her screen. The BRZ wasn't on as a pre-order yet. When the BRZ does come out you can call and place your order over the phone. Without a deposit(?) I need to call her again for a couple more questions tomorrow or so... Or later today)
- What can you do for our group buy?
: Basically what R4m3n said. Match Puente Hills deal. $300 above Invoice. (I need to call and confirm it. It slipped my mind whether I heard MSRP or Invoice.)
- Will Subaru Pay off my 6mo Lease?*
: No dealer will pay off the lease. But will take it as a trade-in depending on value of the car at the time. (You'll have to give her a call to ask for more info or a much more in depth info.)

Thanks Giccin!

Hmm... from the sounds of it, I may stick with Frank over at PH then if the deal is the same. He seemed more willing to deal and overall a very friendly guy to talk to.
